Buying the 2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range

No 2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Before buying the 2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

What to check on the Model Y

NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

The figures, translated

The electric motor does the work, through a 1-speed automatic. Being electric, it is quiet and quick from a stop, and it charges at home, at work or at public chargers. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

At 17.4 kWh/100 km, a 300 km day uses roughly 52 kWh. Its rated range is 515 km on a full charge; real range drops in cold weather and at highway speeds. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $2.61. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$650 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Inside and out

The higher seat of a compact SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.

Best uses

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.

Try before you buy

Rent first, buy later: a week with the Model Y answers the big questions. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. If the Model Y is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.

The cost of driving it

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$650 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $2.61 in electricity.

Which one to look for

Compare the Long Range with the other trims of the same year before you decide. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
